Chapter 685: Ink Afterglow V

"Glory...... For the ...... of the Empire"

Martial held the spear tightly in his hand, and he tried to erect it and stand up with it, but he didn't even have the strength to raise it.

"Forward...... The warriors of the empire never stop......"

Anthony's consciousness was even more blurred.

"For the glory of the Empire, I am willing to become a Royal Knight of the Empire, and I swear to serve Your Majesty with my life!"

Anthony seems to see himself as he once was.

He wants to be the sword of the empire, and he wants to defend the glory of the empire.

"So, I can't ...... yet No...... In the ......"

Finally, Martial finally put his spear up.

His hands were clenched on the hilt of the gun, and his body began to strain, but in fact he had long since lost his strength.

"Warrior of the Empire, Unyielding ......"

Martial's feet had already kicked out of the grass on the ground, and his body could be attached to the hilt of the gun.

At this time, the warriors led by Long Hui took off their helmets and put away their weapons, and they were quietly watching the curtain call of the Imperial warriors.

When the last rays of the remnant sun on the ground were also dimmed, everyone remembered that the person who threw the gun in the posture of attaching it to the handle of the gun had not moved for a long time......

A knightly salute to the deceased, and despite his great disdain for the manners of the people of this world, Xiuin still salutes his enemies in the most correct posture he can remember.

Respectable opponent.

"But also a stupid adversary, what does glory bring you?"

Xiuin muttered silently, but unfortunately the man would never hear his words......

......

As night fell, darkness hung over the land.

"According to the information returned by Charlotte, the vanguard of Rubic the Great will arrive as soon as the day after tomorrow. ”

While briefly cleaning the battlefield, Hans was beside Huin reading the news he had just received from Charlotte.

Unexpectedly, the morale of the army led by Long Hui was not high because of the killing of the Marquis of Martial, on the contrary, there was a trace of depression.

"The day after tomorrow ......"

Xiuin looked at Irvin, who was also silent next to him, and it seemed that Martial's blow to everyone was very large.

Paladin, that is, glory, the highest state pursued by knights, is also the highest glory, the strongest combat power, and the highest glory, this is the belief of knights.

But in front of the display of the Dragon Hui Leader, they have seen the fall of the paladins of the Dusk Empire, and they have also seen the fall of the paladins of the Motu Empire, whether it is Hans, Ilwin, or these warriors of the Dragon Hui Domain, they all began to hesitate where the end of the knight is, where is the glory of the knight......

......

No matter what the mood of the soldiers is, the night will not pass like this.

After capturing a lot of stragglers from the Motu Empire, Xiuin ordered them to take the lead, and after regrouping the army, a thousand combat forces returned to Dirk City with the wounded soldiers, and the remaining less than 5,000 combat forces continued to advance towards the Elegy Fortress.

"Stop, who?!"

The officer on the high wall of the Elegy Fortress shouted to the group of men who had come under the city gates.

"Lord Marquis's heavy guards don't know, are you blind!" Chris, disguised as an officer of the Ink Empire, really looked a little like him.

"Uh, this ......"

Although the officers on the city wall were a little suspicious, through the faint starlight, they could see that there were a lot of blood stains on the armor of the troops under the city.

"Lord Marquis has lifted the siege of Dirk City, let us go back to the fortress first, we are the war group supported by the surrounding fortresses, this is Lord Marquis's sword!"

Chris said, raising a short sword he had captured from Martial.

The officer guarding the city looked at it, and sure enough, it was the marquis's short sword, and he could not be wrong about this.

"Quick, open the gates!"

Watching the gates of the tall, almost indestructible fortress slowly open, a smile appeared on the corner of Xiu's mouth, who followed at the end of the line.

Kalalalala-

The heavy steel gate slowly opened, but the officer defending the city found that the infantry under the city did not enter directly, but quickly separated in the queue, and thousands of cavalry suddenly rushed up from behind!

The officers defending the city were a little confused for a moment, but immediately turned the corner.

"Enemy, enemy attack!!"

But it was too late, and the arrival of the cavalry made the garrison warband, which had not had time to prepare their weapons and put on their armor, raise their hands and surrender after a simple resistance, and the officers defending the city had no choice but to surrender their swords when Xiu Yin ascended the tower.

The Elegy Fortress, the rock that once resisted the combined forces of Lenterdam and the Elves, from Martial's expedition to Xiuin's entry into the fortress, is a day's time.

"Another miracle for Lord Lord!"

When Irvin sighed at this, he was already standing in the tallest building inside the fortress.

The building was not a military outpost, but a shrine.

The Motu Empire, like the other Seven Yao Clans, believes in Victor, one of the four gods on the continent.

In addition to the belief in Victor in the Qiyao family, and then there is the god of judgment, Hess, in the south of the continent, such as the Starlight Kingdom, most of them believe in the goddess of war, Athena, and in the north of the continent, there are more Gaia, the god of the earth.

Irvin led a brigade to occupy the church, originally thinking that he would see a lot of clergy bishops or something, but it turned out that it was already empty, so at this time, Irvin climbed to the top of the church, a bell tower, just to overlook the fortress.

When the warriors of the Motu Empire in the Elegy Fortress figured out what was going on, there were originally some warriors who were plotting to resist the occupation of the Dragon Hui Lord, after all, the occupied army was only a few thousand, and there were still 20,000 combat forces in the fortress, and the surrounding towns could come to support or surround this place.

But when they saw the armor of the Marquis of Martial standing on the school grounds inside the fortress, they felt a little broken.

The paladin they revered in their hearts, the Marquis of the Empire was defeated?

In fact, even if the soldiers of Long Hui led by Long Hui were still a little dazed when they woke up the next morning after spending a restless night in the fortress, they already knew that what happened yesterday was not a dream!

Long Hui's warriors stood on the walls of the Elegy Fortress, and to the north, they could see the huge outline of Motu City, which was the hinterland of the empire and the throat of the empire.

The captured soldiers of the Motu Empire also spent a night of trembling, and in the perception of most Motu Empire soldiers, those countries in the south are barbarians, and they are no different from orcs.

Killing, setting fires, young and old, this is their brutality like beasts.

But unexpectedly, they were simply ordered to hand over their weapons, take off their armor, and then they were confined to the barracks.

It wasn't until noon when it was time for lunch that they were already very hungry and began to be called out one after another.
